00:00 Vice President Sara Duterte asked President Bongbong Marcos to give his second State of the Nation Address yesterday.
00:07 The Secretary of Education thanked Duterte for the support of the President in the reforms of the DepEd, which was supported by scholars, teachers, and staff.
00:18 As a source of encouragement, Duterte praised the President's continued contribution to regional peace.
00:25 Migrant Workers Secretary Susan Ople also praised the President's comprehensive plan for OFWs.
00:33 As for the back wages of OFWs in Saudi Arabia, Ople clarified that in 2015 and 2016, companies that were previously being admitted by OFWs closed.
00:44 That's different from what the President said that companies closed only during this pandemic.
00:49 Senator Rafi Tulfo, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Migrant Workers, was pleased with what the President said that the Saudi Arabian government promised to pay the claims of OFWs.
01:01 Senator Alan Peter Cayetano also felt the President's sense of urgency in the ban on agricultural smuggling.
01:08 As for House Speaker Martin Rumualdez, they are ready to double the expenses in the House of Representatives to pass all the priority bills of the President.
01:15 But the reality is different.
01:20 That's what Senate Minority Leader Coco Pimentel said in a statement of President Bobo Marcos regarding the employment rate in the country.
01:28 In the second Senate of the President, he said that the employment rate was already at 95.7 percent in May.
01:34 It's too high, said the senator. He said that the government should double-check their numbers.
01:40 The President's zone is overstated for Senator Risa Ontiveros. The senator also called the President's statement that the country's situation is getting better prematurely.
01:50 For House Deputy Minority Leader and ACT Teachers Party List Representative Franz Castro, the President's zone is lacking in substance and content.
02:00 The President also said nothing about the salary and benefits of the workers.
02:05 As for Gabriela Party List Representative Arlene Rosa, the President tried to show that the country's economy is strong despite the high prices of goods.
02:14 The President also said that the state of human rights in the country is not organized.
02:18 Suspended Negros Oriental Representative Arnulfo Tevez Jr. called the current administration a failure because he said that the lives of Filipinos are not getting better.
02:28 We will try to get his statement about the President's zone.
